Ambani security scare case: NIA probing 'fake encounter' angle
The Hindu
The "fake encounter" was initially planned in the Maruti Eeco vehicle, which was stolen from Maharashtra's Aurangabad city in November last year.
Investigators suspect that suspended cop Sachin Vaze had planned a "fake encounter" of two persons to project their link with the explosives-laden SUV found near industrialist Mukesh Ambani's residence, sources said on Wednesday. This way, Vaze, an "encounter specialist", apparently wanted to claim to have solved the case, but it did not work out, they said. During a search of Vaze's house in neighbouring Thane, the National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is conducting a probe into the case, had recovered the passport of a man, whose identity has not been revealed.More Related News
